S&P rates Open Text notes BB

S&P said it assigned a BB rating to Open Text Corp.'s proposed senior unsecured notes of $500 million.

The agency also said it assigned a 5 recovery rating to the debt, indicating 10% to 30% expected default recovery.

The agency also said it affirmed the company’s BB+ long-term corporate credit rating.

The outlook is stable.

The ratings reflect a view that the proposed bond issuance would have only a modest negative impact on the company's credit metrics, keeping adjusted debt-to-EBITDA in line with expectations for the ratings, S&P said.

The company has a fair business risk profile and is considered a leading provider of enterprise content management and enterprise information management solutions, the agency said.

The company benefits from a large base of high-margin maintenance revenues and a growing Cloud-based business that generates recurring billings, S&P said.
